Original instruction
The new bag is fitted by passing the cardboard piece
with the rubber membrane through the vacuum inlet.
Make sure that the rubber membrane is passing past
the heightening at the vacuum inlet.
After emptying: close motor top to the container
and secure the motor top with the latches. Never
